Delete. Fails WP:CRIME on both counts. #1: "The victim of the crime is a renowned national or international figure, including, but not limited to, politicians or celebrities". Not true. #2: "The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual—or has otherwise been considered noteworthy—such that it is a well-documented historic event." Not true. The article's lone reference mentions him only in parentheses as an aside. Of the 12 GBook hits: #1, #7, #8, #10, and #12 are not the subject of this article; #2 and #6 only includes his name in a list of other names; #3, #4, #5, #9, and #11 are fleeting mentions in primary source material. Furthermore, the arrests, trials, and convictions of many people are reported in newspapers worldwide and the consensus of Wikipedians, through the development of WP:CRIME, is that they are not all deserving of articles. For that reason, WP:CRIME and WP:NOTNEWS trump WP:GNG.
